Skinny Spicy Basil Chicken

This is another recipe that I cooked for work, so I am not sure how it turned out, but I do know it looked and smelled delicious. I think I am going to try using the same sauce recipe in the near future on a veggie stir fry, or dry fried tofu. I loved the colorful basil in here and this recipe is super healthy and low calorie. It clocks in around 291 calories for just under a cup of chicken (3/4 cup), and only 7 points if you are counting on weight watchers. I found this recipe on Eat Yourself Skinny, which is a fabulous recipe if you are watching what you eat. She is so creative in making meals more low calorie and healthy, and I have pinned soooo many of her recipes. I can’t wait to try them all- she even has baked goods and desserts!! Yum! I have minimal pictures for this post because it went so quick, and there were really only a few steps in making this. Enjoy!

1. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add oil to pan, swirling to coat. Add shallots and garlic to pan; cook for about 30 seconds or until fragrant. Add chicken to pan; cook 13 minutes or until chicken is done.

2. Combine fish sauce, sugar, soy sauce, chili paste, water, cornstarch and salt in a small bowl, stirring with a whisk. Add fish sauce mixture to pan, and cook for 1 minute or until mixture thickens, stirring to coat chicken. Remove from heat, stir in basil and enjoy!
